Yeah, it sounded OK.

I'm curious though.......how do I get these goosebumps on my arms to go away?

Got the Spintech mufflers on and I think it sounds great. The sound in this video probably isn't the best since it was in the garage, but what the hell, it's a video and it's Friday.

Definitely sounds mean! Have you taken it for a spin yet Scott?

[Steve Chryssos]

Sounds fantastic Scott. We just ordered a ton of oval parts from Spintech to build a system for the blue car. We went with the Pro Mod Shootout mufflers. Ear plugs anyone?

[XcYZ]

Thanks guys.

No, Jeff, not yet. Still waiting for the driveshaft to show up and I'm getting it ready to go to paint. I'm hoping to have it to Autokraft by the end of the month.

DAMN!!!! I hope mine sounds as good as that on startup!!!

That thing sounds insane! It sounds like open headers, not through mufflers. Love it Scott, how about you post a video update every Friday for us?

Scott -
Those mufflers sounds absolutely awesome. What, no 7,000 rpm revs on the jackstands ? Ha... Question: When you rev those up, they don't get that "spitty" sound like Flowmasters do, do they?

P.S. Sorry I haven't been super-active here lately. The business has been expanding at a very rapid rate and I broke my arm really bad about 2 months ago.

[XcYZ]

Hey Bruce, I wondered what you've been up to. Sorry to hear about your arm. Hopefully you're well on your way to recovery.

The mufflers have that Flowmaster thump but they don't have that Flowmaster ring or tinny note to them. I'm really happy with them, but I'll have a better opinion once it's under full load at 7k rpm.
